Great and expansive wine selection in a good price range. Food mediocre. Patatas braves were horrible , nice little roasted spuds with cold gloop pored over them are a far cry from from a very basic menu offering. Service was initially good but as the restaurant filled up it became impossible to get any attention from the staff with regard to ordering desert or coffee...so we left and paid at the till
